Chapter 6 - chapter 6

"just because I'm tiny doesn't mean I'm not mighty!" Verbilixa says as she climbs up on a stack precariously stacked books so she's eye level with Milo.

"Ok. I can think of two possibilities to what's going on right now" Milo says shaking his head still not quite believing this tiny child was the goddess Verbilixa

"Oh yeah what's that? The fact I'm awesome?" Verbilixa says smugly hands on her hips smirking. "no" Milo says flatly

"One. You took this form to make people feel more at ease. But considering the fact we're in a shelter of some kind with weapons and all and not a library like most people would see leads me to believe my second theory is more likely" Milo explains

"Oh yeah. What's that one smart guy?" Verbilixa says in a dismissive tone huffing as she crossed her arms across her chest.

"You were attacked and injured' Milo says as Verbilixa's body jerks in shock. "Judging by that reaction it was pretty bad forcing you to separate your divinity from your physical form to escape" he continues as Verbilixa's shock is evident on her face

"Oh so what if that is right...?" She starts. "I'm not done," Milo cuts her off "now due to your injury you can't substain your divine power without injuring yourself further so now out of desperation you must separate your divinity into separate parts to bestow upon humans to safe guard until you can heal and reclaim them. Hence the safe space we're in. A war bunker to hide in" he finished "how far off am I?" He ask

"Nobody likes a know it all!" Verbilixa yells throwing a large book at Milo who dodges it "it's not fair how'd you guess everything so accurately? Do you have some kind of supernatural abilities already?!" She throws more books at him her aim not accurate because of her current conditions and anger.

"You know this behavior isn't very becoming of a goddess" Milo remarks as he dodges another book thrown at him "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" Verbilixa screams at the top of her lungs her stack of books starting to sway dangerously until it falls with the goddess on top of them as she screams "AAAHHH!" Her tiny arms flailing as she tumbles towards the floor.
